Being Different

On Wednesday the 3rd of March 2004, Professor Gwen Griffith-Dickson and two guests met at Greshem College to discuss the difficult topic of ‘Being different’. This discussion focuses on how one understands religious difference, how one responds to it and how possible it is to experience something from another religious tradition.

The Lokahi Foundation

The Lokahi Foundation is a social impact charity that envisages a more dynamic and robust society that embraces religious and cultural diversity with respect and understanding. Our research probes the foundations of society's beliefs and values. These findings are brought to bear on our projects which serve communities that are experiencing real problems resulting from misunderstanding or intolerance. We hope that within these communities our work achieves creative harmony from diversity - which is what the Hawaiian word 'lokahi' means.
